Art Journaling-#Page 1

Thank you all for the lovely comments on my invitation birthday card. And I would also love to welcome two new freinds joining us today Lavanya and Susan.

Today's post is really special to me. This is my first post as a Guest Designer..Yay!! And I am very grateful to Unstampabelles team especially Susan for giving me this oppurtunity.

The theme for this month at Unstampabelles is..

Outside Your Comfort Zone Twist

TWIST :have a different edge!

I was really worried at first when I saw the theme. But then I decided to try something new. And after watching numerous videos I am here to showcase my first try at art journaling.. and also my first attempt at mixed media..

To make this I took an old diary and glued some pages together to create two thick pages. Applied homemade guesso over it and colored with acrylics till I liked it. Then added some hanmade texture paste using stencil. The stencil with circle is also handmade using punches.
Took a cap and stamped white acrylic diagonally. Splattered white paint all over it. The picture and sentiment are printouts. The sentiment says "Until you spread your wings, you will have no idea how far you can FLY". Behind the picture I have added a hand cut frame,script pattern paper and a guaze piece.Finally attached a flower and some shaded circular printouts.

Well done on you first try at art journaling, it is fab! I love the different elements you have used and the textures you have created. Thank you for joining us at Altered Eclectics this month, Jane (DT) :) x

Hello, Richa! Thank you so much for visiting my blog and for your kind words! I wanted to pop in and see what you've been making! Congratulations on your Guest Designer feature! You made an awesome art journal page. And all without stamping - well done! I haven't tried art journaling yet but I've been wanting to. The first page is the hardest (for me)! I'll be back to regular blogging next week - the Cat Lovers Hop starts on Monday and I can't miss that! Enjoy your day!

Fab journal pages..I like the monochrome theme with the splash of colour from your photo, it really is effective,makes the page pop..great sentiment too.Thank you for joining in with Rhedd's Creative Spirit this month...

Wonderful journal page... You really rocked your first time playing with mixed media! Thank you for joining us this month over at the STAMPlorations Mixed Media Challenge where Anything Goes except a card.

Richa...first of all, great job on coming out of your comfort zone and trying this. This sure is a great way to let go and explore. Mixed media and art journaling is so much fun.The quote is so apt for your first try in this style. Keep going. Thanks for sharing this with us at Rhedd's Cretive Spirit this month. Good Luck, Rupa.
